Question
Baby boy, just over 6 months old, initially felt a sore throat, accompanied by severe coughing and persistent low fever. What foods should be avoided when a child has tonsillitis?
Answer
It is recommended to take the child to a doctor for timely treatment. In terms of diet, vegetables and fruits are good choices as they help supplement vitamins and trace elements, enhancing immunity. It is suggested to choose foods like pears, apples, green vegetables, cabbage, and tomatoes, and avoid eating seafood and dog meat, which are more likely to cause allergies. It is best to opt for easily digestible foods such as congee and noodles, and to drink plenty of plain water. Help the child develop good living habits, including regular work and rest (work and rest : regular routine), moderate exercise, to improve immunity, and reduce the incidence of disease.
